Great for Kids

We loved our experience with Ms. Melina. This was such a wonderful and unique activity with my kids. Ms. Melina gave us a warm welcome when we arrived. Her kitchen was so cozy and clean. She kept my tweens engaged the entire time. The donuts were so delicious, and we made enough for the rest of our stay in Athens. We highly recommend this class or any class from Miss Melina. She is a treasure.

Take this course!

Melina is a treasure— warm, welcoming, knowledgeable. We made 4 different kinds of loukoumades and got to take the leftovers with us along with the flavorful Greek salad and the fruits served with one of the sweet loukoumades. Melina regaled us with the histories of different foods, her life, and her multi-generational cooking traditions.Our most memorable and authentic experience in Athens.

An unexpected pleasure!

This was a wonderful experience! Highly recommend. My husband and I wanted to do a cooking class in Greece. We picked Melina's cooking class, because it was how to make Loukoumades- Greek Doughnuts. We were so surprised that loukoumades were more than just desserts. You can make a whole meal with them, which we did at our class. We were so full and took many leftovers back to the hotel. Melina was so welcoming and kind. She is full of Greek information. You must try the fresh lemonaid! Go enjoy ...read more

Perfect afternoon activity

Melina is a gracious host and alot of fun to cook with. Come hungry because you make alot of donuts, both sweet and savory, which were packed up to take with. Melinas knowledge of Greek foods and their origins was interesting and very fun to listen to. My 18 yoa daughter and I highly recommend this class or any of Melinas other cooking classes. Class ended at 330 pm and we had plenty of time ( even with traffic) to get to the cruise terminal for a 7 pm ship departure. Thanks M...read more
